Emerald hack: Pokémon Tourmaline (v0.2.0 Released 01/16/2025)

As of now it crashes on a lot of things such as myboy emu on pc, 3ds, and my rg300 when going in to battle in tall grass. It leaves me unable to progress

So Gulpin has the ability Plastic Body here. Can anyone tell me what exactly that does? It says it "protects from elements" which I would assume means weather like hail and sandstorms. But it ends with "comma but" Does that mean it is more vulnerable to certain types, or like maybe to physical or special hits? Or maybe takes more damage in general.

It's supposed to say "Protects from elements, but not from heat." Ability descriptions are very short unfortunately, I didn't realize that even this was too long. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Its actual effect is: halves damage from Electric, Ice, and Water moves, but doubles damage from Fire moves. You can think of it as a tertiary "Plastic type" if you want.

One more thing that pertains to battling, would you consider adding in mechanics to check details of moves during a fight? I'm sure it would be helpful for many people! You may already be planning that, but just wanted to ask, to show that it's wanted and would be appreciated (as would everything I mention)

I will post a guide to new moves/abilities/etc. at some point. Stay tuned.

And also I was gonna ask if you'd be willin to make it possible to see IVs (and mayybe EVs) from the Pokémon's status screen. But I saw it's planned for the next update potentially?
Down to personal preference here now... I know some people make it an NPC, like they've done in older official Pokémon games where they first added that in. But personally for me that's outdated and I use this word sparingly, but I hate that. Imho we should just be able to see it from within the party. Especially with gym leaders and evil team members all have perfect IVs in every stat. I want to be able to see mine so I can at least get something to stand on equal footing, or close to. Plus the level caps make it harder to bridge that gap.

I might do something like Gaia's stat screen if I can figure out how to display it properly. Stay tuned.

FYI gym leaders don't have perfect IVs, only the evil team members do.

Very final request/query.
So Woobat is now Echo/Flying, which I understand. I really liked it as a Psychic type tho, but idk how I feel about it being Echo/Psychic. If it's already made that way, then so be it, nd that's fine. But if Swoobat is Echo/Flying as I am guessing, could you at least still give it access to all of its Psychic moves / level up learnset? Or not take them away.
It's cool to have the newer typing and all. But I don't think making it the sound typing has to automatically mean it no longer has a single trait of Psychic types. It should still have those abilities and psychic powers.
Click to expand...
For flavor purposes, I decided to make it so that Echo types don't normally learn Ice or Psychic moves. Just as Fairy types usually can't learn Poison moves or Fighting types usually can't learn Psychic moves. It helps gives the type its own identity.

FYI the Chimecho line is now Echo/Psychic if you really want to use one.
 
v0.2.0 is now officially released. Check the OP for a link to the patch file.

All v0.2 versions go up to the 6th gym. v0.2.1, v0.2.2, etc. would just be bug fixes and other minor things.

The next big release is v1.0 which will go up to the E4 + champion.

Like Feebas in gen 3, you have to max out one of its contest stats then level it up. You get Atroceon with max coolness and Voxeon with max smartness.

There should be an evolution guide in the zip file FYI.

The starters have their level up movesets from gen 7/8 like most things in the game. So yes, that's normal.

I forget to mention it, but old save files won't be compatible with this version because I had to add a bunch of space for new flags. Apologies for any inconvenience.

No don't need to apologize, i just surprised that tepig is the only starter without the type move i mean ember, puplio have water gun and rowlet gun leaf blade so tepig kinda disadvantage just that without any fire type move when i try using tepig. It's okay i understand now

From this conversation i think it's unfair for tepig don't have any fire move when being chosen as starter but well i glad i chose chespin today so i know why i easily win because my rival not using amber
 
Hi!

There's an annoying bug where a Pokémon gets duplicated after a trainer battle during a team-up with your rival in the maze.


For example: If a Mankey is next to a Gyarados, after the battle, the Mankey gets duplicated, replacing the Gyarados. As a result, the Gyarados disappears permanently.
